I'm confused now. Why do we need a dentry cache timeout?
i.e. only if we wish to take advantage of the kernel provided dcache.
Right now, it is as if the timeout is 0, i..e hits in the dcache is
treated like a miss
for all practical purposes since we do a full blown revalidate.
Agreed, but any timeout is going to have to be small, and we
already have our own dcache in place. I would vote for leaving the
revalidate function as simple as possible.
